Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are teaming up to make a McDonald’s Monopoly fraud movie.
Deadline reports the untitled film, written by Deadpool scribes Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese, will tell the true story of how a former cop stole millions by rigging the McDonald’s Monopoly game.
The movie will be based on a recent Daily Beast report by Jeff Maysh chronicling an FBI operation to uncover an underground criminal ring run by “Uncle Jerry.” The ex-cop worked as a security officer at the firm that printed the Monopoly game pieces, and was able to defraud the annual promotion of $24 million in prize money over several years.
